The Tennessee-born singer opened BBQ restaurant/bar Southern Hospitality on Manhattan’s Upper East Side in 2007.

It quickly became a hit among locals and Timberlake’s fans flocked to check out his take on southern favorites like chicken wings, pulled pork and macaroni and cheese, all taken from the Timberlake family recipe book.

According to New York Magazine, the trio are have singled out a space on 6th Avenue for a rent of around $35,000 per month.
